WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES

Post throws his fastball in the 86-87 MPH range, with good movement. He has the makings of a good breaking pitch. He gets a lot of strikeouts, including 19 in eight innings in a start during the 2011 season. Post has a commitment to Ohio State, and might be a tough sign, as he’d probably benefit from three years in college to improve his breaking ball and increase his fastball velocity.
